Most prairie grasses
grow
in compact clumps and have incredible root systems. Switchgrass roots
can reach 12 feet below the ground with Big Bluestem and Indiangrass
going down almost as far.

Prairie Frontier has 7 native
prairie
grass mixes available. By planting these prairie grasses you can bring
back some of what the prairie looked like years ago. Prairie grasses
can also provide food and shelter for birds and wildlife and many
butterfly larvae use prairie grasses as a food source. Once
established, prairie grasses are drought tolerant.
